Hi thanks for contacting HCM... Two diagnostic possibility in your muscle ache problem ...... 1.Persistent chest infection (muscle ache as constitutional symptom) 2.Muscle strain by excess cough Here for rule out consolidation of lung by chest x ray (in case of pneumonia ) If it is seen than sputum send for cytology examination .... And than full course of antibiotic if needed given ... Avoid smoking ... Your auscultation done , if wheezing there and x ray suggestive bronchitis than bronchodilator therapy might needed for you ... Meanwhile if you have congestion take decongestent drug like antihistaminic drug .... If no specific cause and chest infection resolving than muscular strain can be cause lead pain (by excess cough ) Simple analgesic given for that ...and bad sleep posture avoided. .. Hope your concern solved. .... Take care. ... Dr.Parth
